First Mining Gold Corp. Ends Silver Stream Transaction with First Majestic

On March 28, 2025, First Mining Gold Corp. announced a significant milestone for its Springpole Gold Project, located in northwestern Ontario. The company received a final payment of $5 million from First Majestic Silver Corp. This payment was part of a silver stream agreement, originally signed in June 2020, which allowed First Majestic to acquire silver produced from the Springpole Project in exchange for cash and share payments.

The silver purchase agreement, which granted First Majestic streaming rights over the silver extracted from Springpole, reflects First Mining's strategic approach to utilize its assets effectively to generate revenue. With this payment, First Mining solidifies its financial position as it navigates the complexities of the mining industry.

As part of an amending agreement finalized on March 13, 2025, the payment terms were refined to secure a smoother transaction for the company. This agreement specified that the final payment, known as the Tranche 3 Payment, will be settled before the end of March 2025. Such arrangements exhibit the confidence that both companies have in the potential of the Springpole Project, which is recognized for its rich mineral deposits.

In light of the agreement's amendments, First Mining has also revised the terms of the common share purchase warrants originally issued to First Majestic. The warrants, which numbered 32,050,228 and were set at an exercise price of $0.374, now have a new exercise price of $0.20, with their expiry extended to March 31, 2028. This provides First Majestic with more favorable terms while still aligning with First Mining's goals for capital management.

Moreover, the amendment made to the warrants indicates a mutual desire to foster a beneficial relationship between both companies. Should the stock price of First Mining reach $0.30 for a consecutive period of 45 trading days, the company retains the right to accelerate the expiry of these warrants, thus enhancing liquidity and operational flexibility.

First Mining is advancing two of Canada’s largest gold projects: the Springpole Project and the Duparquet Gold Project in Quebec. The Springpole Project is poised for further development with a feasibility study and continuing permitting activities. The Environmental Impact Statement was already submitted, indicating that the project is on the brink of significant operational developments.

Founded in 2015 by Keith Neumeyer, who also established First Majestic Silver, First Mining Gold Corp. continues to expand its portfolio which includes not just the Springpole and Duparquet projects, but also the Cameron Gold Project and several others in Ontario and Quebec. The company's robust corporate strategy focuses on maximizing the potential of its gold project interests while enhancing stakeholder relationships.

Navigating through challenges presented by the global economy is paramount. Like many in the mining sector, First Mining is attentively monitoring fluctuations in commodity prices and operating conditions. The company is always looking to ensure that it adapts effectively to any changes in market or operational dynamics.

In conclusion, the recent transactions underscore First Mining's commitment to nurturing its assets and maintaining robust financial health while working hand in hand with strategic partners like First Majestic Silver. The springpole gold project stands to gain immensely from this cooperative approach, potentially leading to more collaborative ventures in the future.
